Coach Dan Campbell caused a stir: Calling the referee ‘Sean McDermott’s slave’ after controversial decision in Lions – Bills match.

In a post-game press conference that has quickly ignited controversy throughout
the NFL, Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell erupted in anger, accusing the
referees of being biased in their officiating during his team’s loss to the Buffalo Bills.
The game, which ended with a dramatic 48-42 victory for the Bills, saw Campbell
lash out at the officiating crew, claiming that the referees had been excessively
lenient toward Buffalo while failing to call numerous penalties against them.
Campbell’s comments, laced with frustration, took a sharp and inflammatory turn
when he referred to the officials as “Sean McDermott’s slaves,” a statement that has
left many in the NFL community shocked and outraged.

The Lions, despite a valiant effort, came up short against the Bills in what was billed
as an exciting matchup. However, it was the actions on the field that ignited
Campbell’s fury. According to Campbell, the referees consistently ignored blatant
fouls committed by the Bills, particularly in high-intensity moments where Buffalo
players were accused of aggressive, borderline illegal hits against Detroit’s key
players. Despite these alleged violations, the officials kept their flags in their
pockets, dismissing the incidents as “valid plays” or “incidental contact.”

“This isn’t football. This is a setup,” Campbell raged, visibly enraged during the press
conference. “There were blatant fouls being committed against my players
throughout the game. The hits were excessive, and they were targeted. The refs?
They didn’t do a damn thing. They looked the other way, called it ‘incidental
contact,’ and allowed Buffalo to get away with it time and time again. It’s clear as
day—this game wasn’t about fair play. This was about money. It was rigged. I’m
convinced the NFL’s been bought, and the Bills are the only team with enough
power to make the referees dance to their tune.”
While Campbell’s words were already stirring controversy, he didn’t stop there. He
turned his ire directly on the Bills’ head coach, Sean McDermott, accusing him of
using his influence to sway the game in Buffalo’s favor. “Sean McDermott doesn’t
just coach a football team,” Campbell continued. “He’s out here buying referees,
controlling the outcomes of games. How else do you explain the complete lack of
accountability for the Buffalo players? I’ve never seen anything like it. This wasn’t a
game; it was a show, a farce where the referees were nothing more than
McDermott’s pawns.”
